<div>Very good list, John! One point though (see edited list above): you CAN do audio frequency modulation (cross mod) on the Ody by using the S/H Mixer (not the S/H, but the S/H Input Mixer). This is a trick that a surprising amount of Ody owners don't know. You can run VCO1 (saw or square) and VCO2 (square) into the mixer, and then apply the output of the mix to VCO2 and/or the VCF. This essentially gives you a pretty versatile modulation mixer. Using this same trick, you can also add noise into the mod mix, or even set VCO1 to the low range and use it as a VCLFO. The only thing you can't do here is mod VCO1 by VCO2. ALSO, note that this trick WON'T work on the otherwise similar Avatar, since the 'tar substitues the Envelope Follower output for the S/H Mix going to VCO2 and the VCF. And as we all know, this was the REAL reason the Avatar flopped. ;)
